Dbroncoboy Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 I pretty consistently seem to see some Lego deals on slickdeals that make me laugh... Here's another: http://slickdeals.net/f/6916482-lego-city-great-vehicles-camper-van-building-set-60057-for-15-99-it-s-back?src=pdw This deal is getting love somehow over there. Don't get it. SD has seemingly become a place where the force feed deals to pad their pockets. I don't know how many people remember what it was like 6 or 7 years ago... but it has definitely changed. Quote
exciter1 Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 I saw that one too. They are constantly posting marginal deals anymore. Some folks call them out on it too. Quote
Bold-Arrow Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 I used to get excited when they posted deals, now most posts are outdated by few days Quote

TheOrcKing Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 I have the previous one with the surfer (7639), but I want this one too.I ended up missing that one to then make up for it a couple years later with 4435 Car & Caravan. I have no idea why but some reason I have a thing for campers and trailers. I guess they're just so pedestrian. :P Quote

I've sold quite a few, but have one left. Quote

Ed Mack Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 Jeff is currently working on a major update of the entire site(Daily Deals, Brick Classifieds, Brickfolio, blogs, homepage, etc...) that will enable many of the features to work together. The new Daily Deals will be slick...no pun intended. 8 Quote

Anakinisvader Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 Why call out slickdeals for posting something for 20% off when there are people on these boards that pee their pants with joy when they see LEGO Shop at Home offer double vip points which only works out to be a savings of 10%? Remember, when we point a finger at someone we have 3 fingers pointing back at ourselves. Quote
